on Friday we emptied, moved and cleaned the hot tub, put it back and refilled it… this time I used a larger hose that I have and it emptied the tub in fifteen minutes… usually it can take hours, so this was a great improvement…

I am always happy when the jets start up after the refill, because sometimes it takes a few tries to get them working… happily, they started right away…

unfortunately we could not replace the arms as the screw for one of them would not come out…

we also left the seal for them to look at, and hopefully repair or replace…

so I have a call in to Krevco to see about having a technician come out and see what they can do…

lid…

it took me three days and a number of tools to get the lid off of this pail of fish food flakes…

I removed the plastic band around it and then tried to pry open the top…

no matter how I yanked and pulled, it would not open…

by that time I was out of food for the fish and was hoping my neighbour might turn up in their driveway and I could ask for help… no such luck…

desperate, I used a bottle opener and a butter knife and circled the top, one inch at a time…

finally I was able to pull it off;-)…

gave the fish some food and prepared to package it into small bags that hold as much as my small jar…

with breaks it took most of the day to get seventeen bags organized…

they will go into the freezer and come out one at a time as I need them…

whew, those big girl pants…
